Splinterlands Fanart Contest: Week 181 - General Sloan

Heyaaaa!
Name's Chev and I'm back with another entry to @splinterlands weekly fanart contest!

This week's entry is the New Life Chaos Legion Summoner, General Sloan!
Woot! Woot!

I just completed my Evasion Strat Life Splinter led by General Sloan!
To celebrate, I made my fanart of the awesome general, with a twist!

Before I show you the process of how I made the fanart tho, lemme show you the OG art first!

General Sloan from Splinterlands.com

Sloan's art is fantastic but I can't help NOT put my own twist into the character, so..

..here it is!

Sketch

As always, we start with a sketch. The twist I hinted at earlier is quite obvious right away. :D
Instead of drawing the same character from the card, I took the artistic liberty to incorporate its design as costume for MY General Sloan.

Lineart

Once I'm satisfied with the character composition, I then used the same brush, but a much refined stroke, to draw a clean line art. This is in preparation for the next step.

Flat Colors

Using the original card art as reference, I mapped out base colors of the clothing. Photoshop's color picker tool is helpful in this step since I wanna be as faithful to the OG colors as much as I can.

Shadows and Highlights

The most fun part of coloring for me is when I add the shadows and highlights! This stage is often experimental for me since I am still studying how to color. Hopefully, by doing this every week, I get to figure out the style I wanna polish in the future.

Background

For this piece's background, since the drawing itself is quite detailed, I went with something simpler. A bullseye together with the Life Splinter's muted colors, I figured, should be enough to make Sloan pop out.

Final Piece

And.. its done! :D

I super enjoyed working on this piece while trying to figure out the coloring style I wanna use this week. I hope you liked it, too!

What card should I make a fanart of next week? Please let me know in the comments section below!
